Hello everyone,

Here we are on the countdown to Christmas and I haven’t even begun my shopping yet. However, I’ve looked out this year’s ugly sweater in readiness for my challenge. The Christmas tree goes up today and that should stimulate me to think seasonal thoughts.

This week’s stories begin with an amusing slice of life from Michelle Dinnick titled “The Visit”. Then part two of the latest story chain titled “Wildfire”, the conclusion written by myself. A seasonal poem from Angela van Breemen, presented with the perfect backdrop, titled “The Cycle”. Lastly, a delightful, wintery awakening, described in detail by Dian Bowers and titled “A Magical Morning”. Join me on writersblog.ca and don’t forget to send your comments for the writers.

Send me your Christmas greeting messages to post and also Christmas stories and poems. And…don’t forget the annual Ugly Christmas Sweater challenge. Your picture could win you a prize and you will all have a chance to vote for the best one.
